I mean .. He did bring it out .. But was blatant clock draining going on particularly in 3rd with circle backs and taking puck from o-zone behind own net once! Pretty bad sportsmanship in a league like this is all!

Yeah I am in support of making a rule against this. especially before the playoffs start.

Some kinds of clock draining are legit (holding puck on boards, cycling in O zone, dumping puck, etc) as long as you aren't just hiding in your own D zone.

I agree, I'm in favor of a ruling as well. When someone does that, it's literally impossible to get the puck from them. You can't control all of your guys, so all he has to do is dish it off, and continue the cycle.

Not to mention, why even do that in first place? That type of stuff should be far away from organized leagues. Save it for random versus play....

Agreed, there is a big difference in not forcing it (i.e. extended cycle plays in the O zone) versus deliberately skating the puck out of the offensive zone all the way to your defensive zone. That's just not something that should really ever be done in a league like this.

The 5 min O-zone cycle can be just as bad as hiding in your own end ... Like you said can only control one player!! Ai is really useless in these situations where puck controlling teams ai is always trying to get open ..

A ruling going forward would be nice ... Hopefully this kind of stuff isn't allowed

Those two things aren't even remotely close...

Regardless are you available tonight, we have 2 games to play this period?

No...no it's not...at all...

If you can do a cycle in the offensive zone for 5 minutes, then you're moving the puck really well and you'll likely get a good chance to score.
I've been able to cycle in the offensive zone for many minutes a few times, and I've had it done on me. There is nothing wrong with it.

BSaint, I honestly don't score enough to know what is considered a glitch shot and what isn't. In fairness however on your penalty shot I got the view problem again so maybe that evens it up a bit? I get a bit flustered in that view and can't stick with the play; as you saw when I flew back to my left and left the net open.

You are incredibly difficult to get the puck away from (without giving away a penalty). Great game I thought.
